If you keep attracting the same kind of partner, or you keep ending up in the same painful relationship cycle, this episode will shift how you see dating forever.

In this episode, Charisse Walker and dating and relationship coach, Bern Mendez, delve into the complexities of relationships and personal healing. They discuss the impact of past traumas on current relationships, the importance of self-awareness, and the journey towards emotional healing. Bern shares insights on attachment styles, the significance of self-soothing, and the role of intuition in dating. The conversation also touches on the challenges single women face in dating and the importance of investing in personal growth to foster healthier relationships.

They also discuss why “trust your gut” can actually keep you stuck when your nervous system is still wired for inconsistency, trauma bonding, and familiar patterns. We talk about the real reason healthy love can feel “boring,” why chemistry can be misleading, and how attachment styles (anxious vs avoidant) can silently drive your choices before you even realize you are choosing.

This is a must-watch if you are:

- Divorced and dating again

- A single mom trying not to repeat the same mistake

- Attracting emotionally unavailable partners

- Stuck in on-and-off relationships or situationships

- Ready to heal, rewire, and choose love from clarity instead of survival

In this episode, you will learn:

✅ How trauma patterns shape attraction

✅ What “nervous system hijacking” looks like in dating

✅ Why inconsistency creates obsession (intermittent reinforcement)

✅ The truth about intuition vs triggers

✅ How to slow down and choose better partners with confidence

If you are creating podcast episodes but you have no idea who your listeners are — or how to turn downloads into real business growth — this episode is for you.

In this episode of Unbreakable Mompreneurs, host Charisse Walker sits down with Nathalie Dorememiex, podcast monetization strategist and co-creator of Podcast Lead Flow, to unpack how podcasters can ethically turn engaged listeners into conversations, leads, and long-term clients — without more content, ads, or burnout.

Nathalie brings over a decade of experience working behind the scenes of 300+ online programs and memberships, where she noticed a common frustration: podcasts were building authority and trust, but rarely guiding listeners into meaningful next steps.

That is where her work now lives.

She helps podcast hosts and guests design simple, human-centered monetization paths that transform episodes into business results, while preserving what makes podcasting powerful in the first place: connection.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why most podcasts do not convert into clients (and how to fix it)
• How AI can be used thoughtfully to personalize listener experiences
• What separates successful memberships from those that fizzle out
• Why one clear call-to-action matters more than more download
• How to turn podcast episodes into lead-generating assets

Nathalie’s approach blends podcast strategy, audience psychology, and smart automation (AI used intentionally, not lazily). Expect clarity, practical examples, and a focus on what actually works after someone hits play — plus a light French accent and zero bro-marketing.

Jeanne Omlor went from deep debt and zero savings to building a $1M business in 17 months at 92 percent profit, and she did it as a solo parent of two using organic marketing (no ads, no endless networking). In this episode of Unbreakable Mompreneurs, host Charisse Walker breaks down the real, unfiltered steps behind that transformation, including what Jeanne did first, what did not work, and what finally “clicked.”

Jeanne shares how she stopped relying on hustle-heavy networking, moved her business online, and had 900 conversations in eight weeks to uncover what her audience truly needed. She explains why she refuses to discount, do “beta offers,” or coach for free, and how charging full price from day one helped her clients show up seriously and get results faster. You will also hear why she believes LinkedIn is the strongest platform right now for high-achieving professionals, and how she scaled one platform at a time (Facebook → LinkedIn → Instagram) instead of trying to do everything at once.

This is also a powerful mompreneur conversation: Jeanne opens up about the reality of building while raising kids, what discipline looked like behind the scenes, how she protected her energy to avoid burnout, and the advice she would give a brand-new mother sitting next to her on a park bench: build something for yourself, too. If you want practical, step-by-step guidance on finding clients organically, building momentum, and creating a business that supports your family (without losing yourself), this episode is for you.

In this episode, you will learn:

• The first steps Jeanne took to get clients online without ads

• Why 900 conversations produced clarity (and only a few immediate clients)

• How she created a simple organic client-getting system that scaled fast

• Why “no discounts, no betas” became a core principle in her business

• What she learned from testing ads later (and why she does not rely on them now)

• How she managed business growth as a solo parent and avoided burnout

• Why LinkedIn is working so well right now for high achievers and professionals

Do you ever feel like you are holding yourself back… even when you know you are capable of more? Do you find yourself over-giving, undercharging, second-guessing, doubting, shrinking, apologizing, or feeling “not enough”?

Most women call it imposter syndrome, insecurity, or self-doubt…

But according to trauma-informed healer Emma Lyons, there is something much deeper at play:

In this transformative episode of Unbreakable Mompreneurs, host Charisse Walker sits down with Emma Lyons to uncover the truth behind negative self-talk, visibility fears, perfectionism, burnout patterns, people-pleasing, money blocks, and the “do more, be more, prove more” pressure that so many women carry.

Emma calls this internal voice “the inner narcissist” — a toxic shame imprint created by culture, religion, family systems, and survival conditioning. And she reveals why mindset work, affirmations, journaling, or traditional therapy often do NOT fix it… because this pattern lives deeper, in your nervous system and cellular memory.

Emma breaks down how shame activates survival responses that block success, visibility, productivity, and emotional freedom.

From original sin to narcissistic family dynamics, Emma exposes how shame became normalized… and why it is toxic in any amount.

Visibility blocks are not mindset issues — they are trauma responses encoded into your nervous system.

If you struggle to charge your worth, ask for more, or feel confident in your value, Emma explains exactly why.

It is not being “nice” — it is a survival strategy rooted in shame and fear of abandonment.

Our culture trains women to be small, quiet, good, and self-sacrificing — and Emma dismantles those lies one by one.

Emma shares her B-R-E-A-K process, including:

B — Break the TranceRecognize that the shame voice is not you.

R — Refuse to EngageUse the DEEP method (Don’t defend, engage, explain, or personalize).

E — Expose the LieCall out the false programming that has controlled you.

A — Anchor in Your BodyRegulate your nervous system and reclaim internal safety.

K — Kick It OutEvict the inner narcissist and step into your authentic power.

This process alone is life-changing.

If you are building a business, leading a family, and trying to show up powerfully in the world, shame will sabotage you every time:

• You will charge too little

• You will hide your gifts

• You will fear judgment

• You will stay small

• You will over-give to feel “worthy”

• You will attract clients who mirror your shame wounds

• You will hustle instead of receive

Healing shame is the foundation for confidence, money flow, visibility, aligned business growth, and genuine self-love.

Emma Lyons is a trauma-informed healer and founder of The Trauma Matrix, where she helps women dismantle the internalized shame voice that sabotages their success, relationships, and emotional freedom. Her work is a powerful blend of deep healing, nervous system liberation, and truth-telling that helps women reclaim their power and authenticity.

Are you tired of waking up exhausted, even after a full night of sleep? Are you pushing through your days with brain fog, bloating, anxiety, chronic pain, fatigue, or unexplained symptoms that doctors keep dismissing as “stress”? If you are a high-achieving mom trying to hold your family, business, and life together while your body is falling apart — this episode is for you.

In this eye-opening episode of Unbreakable Mompreneurs, host Charisse Walker sits down with Dr. Brandy Cummings, a Doctor of Clinical Nutrition and Functional Medicine Practitioner who is changing the game for moms who feel misdiagnosed, misunderstood, and stuck in cycles of burnout.

Dr. Brandy is not your average practitioner. After surviving severe mold toxicity, chronic illness, the loss of her first pregnancy, and years of being dismissed by the medical system, she became obsessed with uncovering the real root causes behind fatigue, burnout, chronic stress, inflammation, and mysterious symptoms moms experience every day. Today, she helps women heal by going deeper than traditional testing, surface-level nutrition advice, or quick-fix supplements.

This episode reveals WHY rest is not working — and what to do instead.

Dr. Brandy explains the connection between trauma, childhood experiences, emotional overload, and physical symptoms like stomach pain, fatigue, headaches, chronic inflammation, autoimmune flares, and more.

You will hear about root causes like mold exposure, parasites, reactivated viruses, nervous system dysregulation, unresolved anger, cellular safety responses, and mitochondrial burnout — all issues overlooked by most doctors.

Dr. Brandy breaks down the science behind the Cell Danger Response, circadian rhythm mismatch, and how your body loses resilience when it no longer feels safe.

Her upstream approach uncovers the emotional, spiritual, energetic, and biological layers that must be healed for your body to finally reset.

You will learn about circadian biology, exclusion-zone water, light exposure, and why your morning routine is the key to healing.

Dr. Brandy explains why high-achieving moms burn out faster — and how to break the cycle.

Dr. Brandy Cummings, DCN, helps high-achieving moms break free from burnout by uncovering the true root causes behind exhaustion, illness, and overwhelm. She holds a Doctorate of Clinical Nutrition and blends cutting-edge functional medicine with compassionate, lived experience. Connect at: www.resilientmotherhood.health

As a mompreneur, you are responsible for children, a business, a home, a marriage, and your own dreams. That weight can feel exhausting. But what if that heaviness is not meant to stay?

In this powerful episode of Unbreakable Mompreneurs, host Charisse Walker welcomes Donna Tashjian, International Life Mastery Coach, minister, author, and founder of Vibrant Living International. For over 30 years, Donna has helped thousands of people step into their God given identity, release the pain of their past, and move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

1. Who am I?

2. Where am I from?

3. Why am I here?

Donna breaks these down in simple, accessible language that helps you reconnect to truth instead of fear.

• Align with truth
